The NothingComa Poems (In at the Deep End)By: Mike SOSThe Nothing is a UK outfit whose metal and hardcore tendencies blast out of the speakers from the opening barrage of "And the Dogs Hang Themselves with Scissors". Yeah, and there's more curious titles to accompany the blood-curdling screams, menacing rhythms, and aggravated guitar work that this quartet lunges at you with, like "Coffin Sex" and the slow grooving "I'll Be the One in the Cupboard (the one with the tie around my neck)". Taking pages from the current wave of metalcore bands from the West Coast such as Bleeding Through and Avenged Sevenfold with a decidedly riotous hardcore stance like the one found in Himsa and Darkest Hour, The Nothing's savage delivery and pummeling sonic output place this band in fine company and make for a triumphantly violent listening.
